Part 1: The Complaint

A Footnote to Plato begins today. Yay.

I’ve decided to make the podcast for the entire novel FREE. Here’s why. So go ahead and start downloading episodes—don’t worry, you won’t get paywalled in the future. If you’d like, you can read the Amazon description and reviews to decide if my literary campus novel is right for you, or check out the novel trailer video below.

I hope you enjoy it so much you’ll take note of the next book I write and maybe even leave a review once you’re done. Or you can show your support with a one-time tip or an upgrade to a paid subscription. Paid posts will be sent out in a separate email and will include:

  • FOOTNOTES: annotated commentary, a behind the book look.

  • BONUS MATERIAL: that has never seen the light of day.

  • STORY ARC: my adaptation of the Hero’s Journey for literary fiction.

  • COMPLETE AUDIOBOOK to listen on Spotify, great for road trips.

  • MY WARMEST THANKS!

Thanks for listening!

Having yet to choose his next life was the soul of Odysseus, and his lot happened to be the last of them all. Recollection of former toils had disenchanted him of ambition, and he went about for a long time in search of the life of an ordinary citizen who minded his own business. With difficulty he found it lying in some corner disregarded by the others.

—The Myth of Er in Plato’s Republic, Book X, 620. 


NOTE: ‘Next chapter’ button won’t work if the next chapter hasn’t posted yet.
